Its supposed to be 100 here today too. Might be too hot to work in the afternoon... even though I'll be in the office.

We are getting the same weather with the exception it poured this morning. So the air will be like hot, wet, funk

I wish it would rain, it's all crunchy outside. I think we're borderline drought condition.

1. Wisconsin
2. Iowa

4. Indiana
5. Minnesota
